6 O'Clock Blues lyrics

[Verse 1]

If my house flowed down in the river

If all of these walls tumbled down in the storm

If this war took all of my money

All of my pride

But I'd never be poor

[Pre-Chorus]

As long as we got each other

There's nothing in the world that can steal my joy

Yeah, as long as we got each other

We can overcome the madness of the world

[Chorus]

Cause people don't make the world go round like they used to

But I know if I got one thing

Baby, I know got you

Yeah, you keep me sheltered from the six o'clock blues

And if I know one thing’s gonna be alright

Then I know that it's me and you

[Verse 2]

So they say we're running out of time

We're running out of water

We're running out of light

There are far too many problems

And just not enough answers

And if we keep on asking they’re gonna tell us what we like

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, but as long as we got each other

There's nothing in the world that can steal my joy

As long as we got each other

We can overcome the madness of the world

[Bridge 1]

They can sell me a story

And tell me we're in danger

But our love will never die

[Chorus]

Cause people don't make the world go round like they used to

But I know if I got one thing

Baby I know got you

You keep me sheltered from the six o'clock blues

Yeah, you keep me sheltered

From the six o'clock

Yeah you keep me sheltered, sheltered, sheltered, sheltered

Baby boy, but if I know one thing’s gonna be alright

I know that I got my baby

[Bridge 2]

Like the birds that live in the sky

We’ll never have to worry

Cause somehow we'll get by

As long as we’re together we can make it alright

But the world will love each other just like you and I

[Chorus]

Cause people don't make the world go round like they used to

But I know if I got one thing

Baby I know got you

You keep me sheltered from the six o'clock blues

And if I know one thing is gonna be alright

Then I know that’s it’s me and my beautiful baby
